Build Your Business

Belonging to BNI is like having dozens of sales people working for you because all the other members carry several copies of your business cards around with them. When they meet someone who could use your products or services they hand your card out and recommend your services. It’s as simple as that!

Ten Minutes

Every Member gets the opportunity to give a Ten Minute presentation to the Chapter to explain more about their business and the type of business they are looking for.

Training

Training sessions and workshops are free although there is a nominal venue charge of around £18.00 when food/refreshment is provided, which Flagship as a Chapter, reimburse.

We are BNI Flagship and we can help you grow your business!

The purpose of BNI Flagship Gatwick is to help each other grow our businesses through referrals and support. But we also aim to have fun while we do this, both at our weekly meetings and occasional social events.

Established in 1999, the Gatwick Flagship Chapter pride themselves on being a warm, friendly yet business-like group with the emphasis on giving quality referrals rather quantity. We meet every Friday morning between 6.30 and 8.30 am at The Copthorne Effingham Hotel London Gatwick, West Park Road, Copthorne, West Sussex RH10 3EU.

If you would like to grow your business and enjoy yourself at the same time then please contact us via our online enquiry form or alternatively contact our Chapter President Richard Beckmann on 07917 403075.

Why Join Us?

BNI provides a structured, supportive, business environment in which local business people can get together to network, learn valuable new marketing skills and develop the strong personal relationships that lead to trust and the consequent generation of significant business for each other.

Eat a great breakfast!

We are very lucky to have The Copthorne Effingham Hotel London Gatwick as our venue. Lovely meeting room and the breakfast is superb! Choose from the Hot & Tasty range with hash browns, succulent pork sausages, back bacon, tomatoes and more. And if you’d like to mix and match, you can also choose from their continental selection with fruit juice, tea and coffee too!

Make use of your alarm clock!

What better way to start the day than with a great breakfast, meeting with like-minded people, build long-standing business relationships AND pass business between each other.

I was locked out of the first Chapter I visited and subsequently became a founder member of BNI Flagship. I know it isn’t for everyone and if I said I received referrals every week, I would be lying, but at the end of the day, you get out of it, what you are prepared to put in and there aren’t many ways to obtain a workforce of around 20+ people and not have to pay them a salary!!

Remember to take advantage of what is available to you as a member. Free training and web presence, seminars, podcasts and advice from others to help with your business….More →
